As kids, they were at turns friends and foes. As adults, they’re two crazy successful people living on opposite sides of the world. When a chance meeting throws them together again, will their relationship blossom into something more? From Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha creators Yu Je-won and Shin Ha-eun, the romantic K-drama Love Next Door — Netflix’s No. 4 non-English language series — stars Jung So-min as Bae Seok-ryu, a businesswoman who’s returned to South Korea to get her life back together, and Jung Hae-in as Choi Seung-hyo, a prominent young architect.

What happens in Love Next Door?

Seok-ryu (Jung So-min) is supposed to get married in the US a month from now … so why’s she back in South Korea trying to hide from her family? Turns out, life hasn’t been easy on the overachiever lately, and she’s looking for a fresh start. The day she arrives, she crosses paths with Seung-hyo (Jung Hae-in), a celebrated architect who knew Seok-ryu — and used to get beat up by her — as a kid. Their moms have been close friends since the pair were young and are still in heated competition with each other about whose child is thriving more, which hasn’t done anything to help Seok-ryu and Seung-hyo get along. As the pair resume their antagonistic relationship, however, their combativeness and hijinks end up bringing them closer — despite their complicated history.
